A: Yes. You tube this model and you can see your same setup hooked up to a dyno. It pumped out 200 watts.
A: No, modern Receivers no longer implement a straight-forward A-B Speaker Function. However, most Receivers at this Price-Level implement some form of Zone2/ZoneB with Outputs for a set of Speakers. Whem properly configured, this will produce the A-B effect that you described. Additionally, Zone2 can be set to output a Totally Different Source than is concurrently Playing on the Main Speakers.

Easy setup
Sounds Great! I've used Yamaha receivers for some time now. Prior to this one I purchased a Denon. I was not happy with the way it connected to my TV. The TV finds the Yamaha and connects perfectly. My receiver sits in a different room than the TV so ease of connection is a must for me. Changing to other sources is very easy with the Yamaha. Looking forward to years of entertainment with it.

Awesome AV receiver!
I had a Yamaha RXV-385. Great receiver. I bought the RX-V6A because it has more power, Dolby Atmos and a host of other features. Including phono input for my turntable. The unit is visually striking. Hook up was a breeze. Everything works as it should. No problems with Bluetooth. But the main thing is the sound quality, which is excellent. Whether watching movies or vinyl, or listening to tidal or apple music, the sound quality is superb. The unit has performed flawlessly. Hook up to my Wi-Fi was simple and fast. Soon as I turned the unit on, it notified me a firmware update was available. That took just a couple of minutes. All in all I love this receiver. Super easy to set up, great features, plenty of power, and awesome sound quality. And its a Yamaha, which has always been a reliable brand for me. Couldn't be happier!

Absolutely love Yamaha RX-V6A receiver
I purchased the Yamaha RX-V6A 7.2-channel AV Receiver from Best Buy last month, and I am extremely pleased with it. The setup was straightforward, and the sound quality is outstanding. It delivers a powerful and immersive audio experience specially paired with good speakers. I have 5 polk speakers attached to it, and the receivers delivers a rich base to the speakers. I do not have to use a subwoofer at all, making movie nights and music listening sessions much more enjoyable. The range of features, including Dolby Atmos and DTS support, adds a new dimension to my home theater system. Additionally, the receiver's sleek design and intuitive interface make it a great addition to my living room. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this receiver to anyone looking to upgrade their audio setup.
